A taïfa (female name) (ملوكالطوائف) indicates a small kingdom based on a central urban node, the primitive médina, and reigning on the zones neighborhood in the space dominated by the Moors, after the collapse of the Califat of Cordoue.

  • the cities are classified according to the ethnic origin of their leader and not of their population, often various:

    • Berber tribal chiefs like Banū Zīrī in Grenade,
    • mercenaries of the Slavic armies in the past Esclavon S, the Saqāliba S of the Caliphs (mainly in the kingdom of Valence),
    • Arab emirs proclaiming their domination on certain zones, like the Abbadides in Seville.

All launch out to the attack of the urban cores to direct them, without more any coordination of a central capacity.

Geostrategic situation

The kinglet of a taïfa is weak, and competitor of its neighbors. Al-Andalus becomes parcelled out and chaotic. The situation is reversed compared to the Caliphate, in fact Christian columns carry out this time of the Cavalcade S to draw spoils, hostages, prisoners or better, to subject a kinglet of a taifa to pay a Paria (tribute): The Christian States being in the course of formation, they could not annex the territories after a gained battle and thus gained the spoils or the promise of tribute by leaving local potentate on the spot.

It is one chaotic time and of Al-Andalus division, the fitna .
